From : Casablanca To : Canary
Islands
Around 8 we wake up. The watchman is still there. An alarm for
the workers makes sure that no one sleeps anymore. We call the agent to get our
passports. This takes a long time and finally get them around ten. I quickly go
with our French neighbour to see a yacht which is being built at the shipyard.
It is a nice wooden boat built for a Frenchman. Our neighbour. We give a call to
the port control. Out on the ocean we take water to clean the fenders and the
boat. It is rather easy to get it off.
We start with the halfwinder for about
2 hours. We sail between 2 and 4 knots, but after 2 hours we come even below the
2 knots so we start the engine. The sea is calm. There are a couple of boats
going the same direction as we are. Until the evening we sail along the Moroccon
coast.
